[quote=Anonymous]As someone who has been a live-in nanny, if any of my employers ever asked something like that of me, I would definitely not be renewing my contract with them. Part of the "perk" of being a live-in is the space you have apart from the family. Decorating the space is one of the ways to make it feel like home. I understand about the holes in the wall and painting; it works just like a rental property. However, telling her to take down such pieces of art in a space that is suppose to be hers is insulting. It would be like my landlord telling me to take down my art because it offends him.

The fact that she spends time with your children on her off hours speaks very highly of her. I'm sure you can be direct with her. Tell her that you find the art offensive and would rather the children not enter her space if the artwork is visible and welcome her into your home if the children want to visit. Or you could just not say anything and it would continue to bother you.  [/quote]
